I heard that if you take "x" number of vacation, sick, holidays in a week they ignore looking at how many days you are in office for that week. Is that true? If true, what number is "x"?

are u d-mb? just look up the print out in hr portal. it literally has the amount needed on pto used to skip attendance reporting if there is a holiday that week
“I swipe in, check emails and then leave to work the rest of the day from home. They are only looking at swipes as I have told. They might start looking at time on the corporate network but until then this works for me and my boss.”
This.
This discussion came up today and my director literally said: “just badge and leave, I don’t give a sh-t - as long as it shows on the report I could care less”
Stankey is the only one who cares and fu-k that guy.
I swipe in, check emails and then leave to work the rest of the day from home. They are only looking at swipes as I have told. They might start looking at time on the corporate network but until then this works for me and my boss.
Complaining about your vacation days.
This is really a sad state of affairs Stankey brought on to this company. He is really living up to the CEO wall of shame that Cramer on CNBC labeled him and Stephenson a few years ago. Totally pathetic.
If you are an office worker, you are supposed to be in the office 3 to 5 days a week. If there is a holiday and you take a PTO day you are expected to spend the remaining 3 days in the office.
Find a collocated person you trust. Give each other your id’s, alternate weeks and swipe each others cards.
This will result in immediate termination if you are caught or reported. You are much better off just refusing to comply than resorting to falsifying id records and other subterfuge.

The number is 5. Compliance is counted by the week, and you must show vacation all 5 days to avoid the office. Any amount of vacation will work, but if you use less than a half day you are asking for more scrutiny.
It depends. if you are WFH, vacation time counts as WFH hours. If you are RTO, then your vacation counts as RTO hours.
Just go to the office… how is this a discussion… your job is requiring you to go to the office. If you don’t like it… leave… pretty simple…
If you take one vacation day in a week, the week is considered an unqualified week. AVP's will monitor for qualified weeks, where you are marked to be in 5 days.
Just badge and leave.
It was sent out to other org on a PDF. If you have 3 days available to go to the office you go to the office, regardless of your PTO. Only time its not counted is if u took 3 days off.
The reports used to count 1 hour of PTO as “excused from office attendance”, but the updated the logic so that you have to be in office to get credit. So take 5 days off if trying to avoid office
This is why the management head count is so heavy. Constant baby sitting.
might want to worry more about having a job than how often you have to show up for it.
X=5. There’s both a job aide and faq sheet for managers. It’s spelled out pretty clearly.
That said, my boss admits he never even looks at the tracker.
So how lucky do you feel.
If on vacation or PTO, were you in the office? Why would they count?
Vacation days count as office days, whether the company likes it or not.
The HR reports include everyone, whether you took pto or not. It’s up to the leader to toggle and exclude those with 3 or more days of pto.
And correct. You have to take 3 or more days pto to be excluded. If you take 2, then you still have 3 available working days to come into office.
It depends on the VP...but, basically if there are at least 3 days in your week that you can be in the office, then it's expected for you to be there.
To my knowledge addition of VC/sick/holidays doesn't change it. Now, if you take 3 days of VC, it's impossible for you to have a "good week" that week. That week is not supposed to be counted in the calculation of your presence report...but I have doubts that is working properly.
The reporting and overall management of this has been a sh-t show...
Yes should be 3
I believe it's 3. Its expected that you're in the office up to 3 days a week so if you have 3 days you're still expected to come in 2 days but it may or may not report on it.
